Or would you recommend a different program altogether? Please provide an explanation so I know why you're recommending one software over the other.

I just upgraded to a Legion Pro 7i (Gen 8), but I used to use a HP Omen 15, so I'm used to monitoring temperature through the Omen Command Center.

Just a quick question when I look up hw monitor I see a few downloads such as cpuid and some others and I don’t know what one is official so could someone tell me what’s the official one

I know the image is poor, sorry about that, but you folks can read it, Is this legit? What’s MHz are these ? My cpu is humble, i5 10400f Thank you all for the opinions.

Hello! So i started using HWMonitor today, and a few question came to my mind. I'm not aiming to become a computer genius, so it's fine if you simplify your answer.

• If i want to track basic stuff, what should i mainly look for?

• What is GPU "Hot spot"?

• Does the "Hot spot" apply to more things, like the Cpu for example?

The reason i want to track while gaming, is simply because i wanna know when my CP is working a lot vs not at all. I have a fairly new PC, so i don't have any specific issues atm.

PS: I have no clue if this question is related to this thread, and if not, please send a link to the right one if you know.

I don't know if this is the right sub for this question because I'm not sure if its hardware-related but here it goes.

I suddenly noticed low fps in games a month ago, mostly Battlefield (any one) and Squad, which was resolved by restarting the computer each time.

I tried everything. Updating my drivers using DDU (safe mode), updating my BIOS, reseating my RAM and GPU, switching off fast startup, switching to high performance power plan, etc.

And, by accident, I've been getting better fps by having both ISLC and HWMonitor running in the background. Now, I understand how ISLC can help with memory leaks, but why is HWMonitor helping me with fps?

Here are my specs:

• CPU: i7 10700k

• Board: ROG STRIX B460-H Gaming

• GPU: EVGA GTX 1070 Ti

• RAM: 32GB @ 2400MHz (Just one stick)

• PSU: EVGA Supernova 850 G2

• Drive: m.2 SSD for OS and some games, some other games are installed on a SATA SSD.

Any help would be appreciated.

Troubleshooting Help:

What is your parts list?

• CPU: Ryzen 3600

• MB: MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC

• Graphics: EVGA 3080 FTW3

• The 3 power connectors are connected via 2 wires from PSU (1 is daisy chained)

• PSU: SeaSonic 850W plat

• RAM: 2x 8GB (confirmed dual channel in CPU-Z)

• Cooling: 2x 140mm intake fans, 2x 120mm exhaust fans, 1x 120mm CPU fan (U12S cooler)

• Case: Meshify 2 Compact

Describe your problem. List any error messages and symptoms. Be descriptive.

I get occasional lag when playing games and want to make sure there are no issues.

List anything you've done in attempt to diagnose or fix the problem.

In HWMonitor I am seeing a lot of items in the Performance section (Power, Temp, Reliable Voltage, Operational Voltage, etc.) all hitting "1".

Screenshots of HWMonitor after gaming for an hour or so:

Provide any additional details you wish below.

I plan on tweaking my fan curves a bit, though it looks like my CPU and GPU temps are within reason based on searching through other posts. I am mostly concerned with hitting the limits and what that really means.

I would love someone more knowledgeable than me to take a glance at some of the numbers and let me know if I can do anything else to make things better/smoother.

Why does Hwmonitor exist when why does this app exist and still keeps getting updates and why ppl still make issue posts using it

HWinfo is better,accurate, more features, and is not limited in the free version

It is not accurate, and almost all posts with intel cpus show the cpu using like 20-21w and running like 90c, only for them to get a comment saying "Hwmonitor is not accurate, use Hwinfo", for them to find out they are pulling 90w at +100c

I remember back in the 1st gen Ryzen days HWMonitor used to be way off! How accurate is it nowadays! It always reports my 5950x hitting up to 80c while gaming with an Aorus AIO 360mm rad!

Hey all, I'm new to PC building and want to keep and eye on my recently built system so I downloaded HWMonitor. Tried doing my own research and it seems most people agree,

TMPIN0 = Motherboard
TMPIN1 = CPU
TMPIN2 = Northbridge

so, simple enough. Except I have 5 TMPIN readings and it skips TMPIN1 altogether!

In addition to that, I've seen some people say "Package (Node 0) is the +20c offset for Ryzen" , not exactly sure what that means, I would appreciate some insight/clarity into all this, sorry for being so uninformed.

I'm attaching a screenshot of my readings,

i just upgraded to a ryzen 5 2600 and on hwmonitor im getting 98c on my cpu but in my bios its 35 and my ai suite 3 says 57c while im playing a game should i be worry or is hwmonitor lying

HWMonitor, PC-Wizard, CPU-Z, GPU-Z, GKRellM, NZXT CAM, Speccy, HWiNFO64 e.t.c so many to choose from. Which is the easiest to use for checking my system from time to time?

I recently finished my first ever build and it seems to be working well. However, I'm not very well versed in understanding a lot of the data yet. Can you have a look at these and tell me if this is good or do I need to potentially adjust something in my case. Or maybe there is some other data I need to collect additionally?

This is from HWM after 5 hours of gaming and recording the gameplay with OBS. I also ran Time Spy a couple times during the day.

Hi all,

Any recommendations for a graphical hardware monitor? I used to use modbros because it had a simple way to display the specs you wanted - but that was many years ago and I can’t figure out the new version, and tbh the cost is a little ridiculous.

I have a small 5 inch screen that I have setup as my “monitor” for the system - so would like something I can continue to use that for. Libre is good but the gadget is pretty small without being able to resize to fill the mini screen.

HWMonitor is tell me that the temp of my CPU is at 97 degrees Celsius, or 206.6 degrees Fahrenheit. I really doubt that my CPU is running over 200 degrees and still in a solid form.

Edit: I have an APU, but the graphics part of it is only running at 45 degrees Celsius
